Baron to undergo rehab on Monday

At a presscon today, Baron Geisler will announce that he will undergo rehab starting on Monday, Jan. 24. He’s also expected to express regret over the unfortunate incident.

MANILA, Philippines - Baron Geisler is being accused by Cherry Pie Picache of touching her breasts during the shoot of the Piolo Pascual starrer ABS-CBN soap Noah, even while Baron is facing two cases of acts of lasciviousness filed against him by Yasmien Kurdi and Patricia Martinez (daughter of William Martinez and Yayo Aguila).

Cherry Pie filed a complaint against Baron with PAMI (Philippine Artists Managers, Inc.). After an emergency meeting Wednesday night, the PAMI came up with the following official statement signed by PAMI president June Torrejon-Rufino and PAMI chairman Ethel Ramos:

PAMI just concluded an emergency meeting in response to the letter of complaint received from Mr. Ed Instrella (manager of Cherry Pie Picache) against Actor Baron Geisler.

Ed Instrella related the unfortunate incident involving Cherry Pie and Baron during the taping of Noah last Friday January 14, 2011. Arnold Vegafria in behalf of Baron expressed his sincere apology. He is in agreement that Baron needs professional and medical help and has expressed to PAMI that Baron is willing to undergo treatment. We are supporting Arnold in his efforts to help his artist.

After hearing both sides from the two PAMI Members, Ed and Arnold, the PAMI has decided on the following:

1) That all PAMI managed artists should not be exposed to incidents like this again for their safety and security

2) We are requesting the assurance from all networks and movie producers to ensure that any actor in an intoxic ated state should not be allowed on the set

3) That Baron should publicly apologize to Cherry Pie Pica che

4) To inhibit all PAMI managed artists from working with Baron until such time that PAMI believes Baron Geisler is fully rehabilitated.
